Re: Epson files lawsuits against cartridge resellers

2006-02-25 by David M. Dorn

There may be another and bigger Gorilla in the pigment printer  
market.  I am referring to Canon.

I was just on Canon's website looking at their new 10 ink PIXMA  
pigment printers. Their entry into the printer market was a logical  
step give their dominant position in the digital camera market and  
especially at the pro level.  I am not a pro but I understand that  
Canon's rise in the camera market was their unwavering support of the  
professional photographer.  I would image they will take the same  
approach in the printer market.

Given Epson's attitude, the replacement for my 2200 when the time  
comes may well be the Canon and not a 2400.

Given time and competition from Canon and HP, Epson my be left  
holding the bag.  What goes around comes around.
